LOSS
©Dianne Barskey 2007
Loss of a loved one is so hard to comprehend
You are never ready for their life here to end
You do not want them to suffer
But their leaving is rougher
And you can not imagine how you will mend
Friends try to comfort and soothe
Their words seem too smooth
They mean the best
But you are distressed
Try to remember that they want to soothe
The suffering has ended for your loved one
It is hard to see them in their coffin
Know that they are not there
But do not despair
They are with someone more sovereign

Try to remember that they want to soothe

Know that they are not there
But do not despair
They are with someone more sovereign
